We replace the four main filters :

Oil filter

Engine air filter

Fuel filter

Cabin filter

Always following the manufacturer's recommendations and adapting maintenance to the actual use of the vehicle (urban driving, short journeys, road, mountain, etc.).

Why is it important to change filters?

Over time, filters become filled with dirt, dust, and debris, which can cause:

Increased fuel consumption

Loss of performance and power

Poor indoor air quality (dust, allergens, bad smells)

Increased premature wear of mechanical components

At Pneumàtics Pirineu we check the actual condition of each filter and advise you on when it is really necessary to replace it.

Why should engine oil be changed?
Oil is the key element that:

Lubricates internal engine parts

Reduces friction and wear

Dissipates heat

Drags impurities and metal particles

With the passage of kilometers and time, the oil degrades, loses its properties and stops protecting the engine properly. Driving with old oil can cause:

Mechanical noises

Higher consumption

Overheating

Serious and costly breakdowns

With over 50 years of experience as a workshop in Andorra, we work with high-quality spare parts from leading manufacturers. We offer a fast, efficient, and transparent service.

Frequently asked questions about changing filters

How often should vehicle filters be changed?

It depends on the type of filter and the vehicle, but they are usually changed every 10,000 or 15,000 km, or once a year. The cabin air filter may require more frequent changes if you often drive in dusty or urban areas.

What filters do you check when doing maintenance?

We check and change the four main filters: oil, air, fuel and cabin. Each has a key role in engine performance and interior air quality.

What happens if I drive with dirty filters?

A dirty filter can increase fuel consumption, reduce engine power, and accumulate dirt within the system. It can also affect your health if it's the cabin filter.

Do you use original or compatible filters?

We work with quality spare parts, approved and compatible with each make and model of vehicle. We always prioritize durability and efficiency.

Is the filter change done together with the oil change?

Yes, the oil filter is usually changed at the same time as the oil. It is a common practice to ensure clean and effective lubrication of the engine.

How often should the vehicle's oil be changed?

It depends on the type of vehicle and the type of oil used, but it is generally recommended to change it every 10,000 - 15,000 km or once a year.
In modern vehicles with high-quality synthetic oils, intervals can reach up to 20,000 km, always following the manufacturer's recommendations.

Why is it important to change the oil?

Oil is essential for the engine to function properly. A regular oil change:

Maintains optimal lubrication of internal parts
Reduces engine wear
It helps to control the temperature
Removes dirt and metal debris
Improves performance and consumption

Dirty or degraded oil can cause serious breakdowns and costly repairs.

How do I know if my vehicle needs an oil change?

Some common signs are:

The oil warning light on the instrument panel
Louder or irregular engine noises
Higher fuel consumption
Dark color or thick texture of the oil when checking it
Strange odor or excessive smoke

At Pneumàtics Pirineu we can check it at any time at no cost.

What type of oil do you use?

We work with approved, top quality oils, always following the vehicle manufacturer's specifications.
We have oils:

Synthetics
Semi-synthetics
Specials for hybrids and electric cars

With ACEA standards, API and OEM specifications (BMW, Mercedes, VW, Ford, etc.)

Does the oil change also include the oil filter?

Yes. In proper maintenance, the oil filter is always changed along with the oil.
This ensures that the lubrication is clean, efficient and long-lasting.
An old filter can contaminate the new oil and reduce its service life.
